The Spiritual Use of Entheogens

[Aion]

I've died on psychedelics a handful of times, it's fun stuff. I eventually realized I'm always dead so I stopped dying after that. The lessons that I always learn every time I use psychedelics tends to be 'Oh, I don't actually need this.'

I've never had any 'contacts' on psychedelics although I have encountered 'myself' in various forms. That being said, I've always felt I can make contact anyways, so maybe that's why. The feeling of death can sure be terrifying especially when you are resisting it. My very first LSD experience was an intense experience and at the end I 'died' and it was very unpleasant while I fought it and then eventually I just let myself go, I gave in, and I fell in to an Infinite Void as nothing but awareness in nothingness. Eventually I realized my awareness wasn't going away, even after every other layer of my being had dissolved away.

I learned then that the Void is Aware in all directions and it is the silent observer which dwells at the heart of All.
